Defining a News Feed Category

Instances of the Braze News Feed can be configured to only receive cards from a certain “category”. This allows for effective integration of multiple News Feed streams within a single application. For more information on this feature see Braze Academy

News Feed Categories can be defined by calling the following methods as you load the News Feed:

1
2
3
4
5
6
newsFeed.setCategories(CardCategory.ALL_CATEGORIES);
newsFeed.setCategories(CardCategory.ADVERTISING);
newsFeed.setCategories(CardCategory.ANNOUNCEMENTS);
newsFeed.setCategories(CardCategory.NEWS);
newsFeed.setCategories(CardCategory.SOCIAL);
newsFeed.setCategories(CardCategory.NO_CATEGORY);

You can also populate a feed with a combination of categories as in the following example:

1
newsFeed.setCategories:EnumSet.of(CardCategory.ANNOUNCEMENTS, CardCategory.NEWS);
